I was hesitant to watch this because I knew the ending is gonna kill me. War movies rarely end well. And since this was based on a true story, I did know how it was going to end. I watched it because I was trying to watch all of Choi Seung Hyun's (T.O.P.) movies. I love him. I've been a fan of him since he's in Bigbang, my favorite Kpop boy group. And after watching his movies, I love him even more. THE STORY 71 Into The Fire is a story based on real life story of 71 student soldiers who fought for 11 hours defending the Pohang Dong girl's middle school while waiting for reinforcements. I'm not really a big fan of war movies. I cry at the simplest things and this movie is about students who were young and untrained and were expected to fight for their country. I admire their courage. I wouldn't know the first thing to do if I was in their place. ACTING/CAST Like I said, I'm a big fan of Choi Seung Hyun. I watched this movie mainly because of him. He was really good at his role as Oh Jeong Beom. He was saddled with the responsibility of leading the 71 students left behind. Kwon Sang Woo as Gu Kap Jo was pretty good too. He plays the role of the one who hates following rules. Cha Seung Won as the North Korean Commander Park Murang was good too. I thought all the actors were pretty great. They were able to capture my heart at least. MUSIC: There wasn't really any music. There were instrumental pieces. What few the movie had, fit the scene it was in. REWATCH VALUE: Am I gonna watch it again? Hell yes. This is one of my favorite movies by T.O.P. His acting was spot on. I just need to make sure I got tissues. ^_^. OVERALL: 10 out of 10. If you want to watch a good war movie, then this is the movie for you.
